We won't get a contract because guys like you keep throwing our own pilots under the bus. I'm sorry but for a very young union I think we are doing a pretty good job.

We had the highest % to vote yes.
Over 10% of the pilot group showed for the first rally.
Surveys prove extremely high engagement.
Nearly 10% of the group volunteers to work for the union.
Sorry man. You're wrong.

Some of our guys are so self-defeating it's like HR hired a bunch of Eeyores.(maybe they did)
I know I know this guy wore a pats lanyard or this guy helped clean, but for everyone ONE of those there are 10 doing what the union asked. Heck this summer the company even admitted not as many guys were picking up RSAs. Now are we going to have the guys that don't follow the union, yes but so does every airline out there. While some guys may not be as militant as some would like the engagement numbers and support numbers are high and that's what we need. Sorry I know it's a rant but I just think we should be very proud of what our union has been able to do in such a short time.

I would say the same....65%-70% of the CA's I fly with wear the ALPA lanyard. Pretty good I suppose. What blows my mind is seeing FO's not wearing the lanyard, while their FO counterparts at the Legacies make upwards of $180/hour on the Airbus. I guess some JB Captains might not be fully invested in Alpa's mission for a contract since they already make pretty good money and don't wanna shake things up...that's my only guess.

I've talked with Members who are very anti-ALPA and anti-market rate CBA. It's depressing. I get if you have a beef with ALPA, but now is not the time to litigate that.
